- Determinants of citations in tourism and hospitality studiesPublication . Correia, Antónia; Rodrigues, Paulo Manuel Marques; Kozak, Metin; Raposo, PedroCitation metrics are frequently used to assess research and rank journals and researchers. Nevertheless, this is still a process with asymmetric information. Tourism research has matured within a small community and through a multidisciplinary scientific paradigm. This paper aims to understand the determinants of tourism research citation patterns. To this end, 101,968 papers within fifteen years (2004-2018) are analysed. Our empirical results suggest that authors' prestige, the multidisciplinary nature of research, and the impact factor of journals and bibliometric articles will likely increase an article's citations. This paper represents a step forward in understanding the citation formation process in tourism research.

As for the tourist destinations, the most relevant in order of priority were Cruise tourism followed by Art/culture tourism, showing that these two types of tourism must be combined in a co-competition
